Just seen this.

That explains the poor performance the other day.

If half the squad were coming down with the virus maybe that contributed to the performance. Hope they all recover quickly.

Lets ignore the potential millions lost to coronavirus, clearly irrelevent.

How much has AP actually 'lost'? The money from season ticket holders/memberships and shirt sales was pretty much already in the company coffers, money from sponsors, money from SKY.
We get no money from the concession stands so the only income is the walk ups plus some limited shirt/garment sales, the amount is therefore the net amount after VAT for ticket sales and the limited number of garment/shirt sales.

How much per 'walk up' ticket sale, as a net amount after VAT does the club receive and how many tickets/bums on seats will the club have 'lost' this season?

I'd really like to know how you worked out these 'millions' and how you had access to the clubs accounts? .
Also AP/Hull have, as with other SL clubs being allowed to apply for funding from the government via the RFL, or had you forgotten about that?
ATEOTD if Pearson has made errors that have cost him, that's on him, no-one else, sure the current climate has an impact but not how much you're imagining it is and there's financial help available.
To have a chance to be in a better financial position, the owner of the business needs to employ the right people, needs to invest money in times when things are not as good as they have been, to redress his errors to have a better chance of success, otherwise the business will fail, at best stagnate.

Harsh. Does beg a question on protocols though. Everyone was clear on Friday I think then 7 or 8 now positive. Do they test on match day I wonder?
